1.) Having an abscess lanced & painfully packed with gauze that has a little bit hanging out gives me more insight into menstruation, I suppose.

2.) Gallagher’s lucky I gotta go help my bro with West Coast stuff or I’d go funny him straight outta Utica. Not braggin’. Nearly anyone could.

3.) “George Bailey, no world for you. Waste your years on these feckless rubes instead. You are not even allowed the escape of death.” - God

4.) Whenever people talk about SNL being “good this week”, it’s like hearing a delusional case who can’t admit a loved one died years ago.

5.) We shred our hearts to ribbons, spread them out across the sky, that we may yet outshine the stars. Yes. That’s the point.

6.) Thing is, don’t compare yourself to the Great American Novel or whatever. Make the Great tale about living inside your head.

7.) I’ll always defend ecstatic excellence & principled failure over practiced mediocrity. We get one life, settling is tragedy.

8.) Okay. Leavin’ on a jet plane in a few hours. Mostly gonna be visiting with Dan but if L.A. peeps wanna hang out, might be able to once or twice. I’ll be back in Little Falls/The Mohawk Valley Christmas night.
